Blakely's NBA Six Pack Power Rankings: Jan. 16

BOSTON — And so we've hit the show-and-tell portion of the NBA season where teams are starting to show just how for real they are this season which in itself, can be quite telling.

The Brooklyn Nets, considered too old on the court and too young on the bench, are getting it together and making a push for the postseason.

Sticking in the Atlantic, the Boston Celtics continue to acquire assets while continuing to chip away at a roster that wasn't all that talented or deep to begin with.

The Miami Heat have hit a bit of a skid, which makes one wonder if they're just not as good as they've been the past two seasons, or whether the boredom of playing regular season games is starting to affect their play.

And as we head out West, Golden State adds depth, the Lakers add to their fans' frustration, and San Antonio just keeps adding up the wins.

It's a fun time in the NBA right now with teams jockeying for position to improve their playoff standing.
